Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
208 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This is a game with a very distinct art style and some interesting story to tell.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
78 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The art is consistently mesmerising, incorporating a kind of nostalgic, retro sepia look that's quite distinct from the current wave of pixelated graphics.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
40 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack is solid throughout (even though the later chapters lack the oomph present in the first one), and to a game of its kind the overall sound design was very captivating, from the storm in the alps to market crowds and lecture hall gossip, adding a satisfying layer of depth and life to an otherwise largely inert game.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics are lovely, the story is lovely, the main character is lovely.
